Support CRBI's Environmental Quiz Bowl Program

 Has your life or the life of your child or grandchild been enriched by the Coosa River Basin Environmental Quiz Bowl during the last couple of decades? Please make a donation to this effort. The EQ Bowl is just one of the many ways CRBI works toward informing and empowering citizens to protect, preserve and restore North America’s most biologically diverse river basin. CRBI is a very effective environmental asset to natural world of our unique home here in the ridges and valleys of Northwest Georgia (and a little of Tennessee and Alabama). Won’t you help? 

I believe that learning that takes place in the context of the real world around us sticks. The EQ Bowl involves fourth graders in observing, appreciating, researching the lush natural Eden where we live: its history, its geology, its plants and animals and the ways we can protect and preserve it.

Every donation will be used toward that mission. Please help!

Terrell Shaw giving the Armuchee environmental quiz bowl team a pep talk before the big competition. If you don't have plans, come out to Coosa River Basin Initiative's Waterfest today! Comments Jaki Day How did AES do on E bowl?
Terrell Shaw Jaki our kids got off to a very slow start, losing the first two rounds, then won four in a row to tie with Trion for first place, forcing a shoot-out (all toss up) round. We lost that. So a very good Trion team won the championship. I am very proud of how our kids worked, how they functioned as a team, and how they showed great sportmanship. They represented AES very well.
Jaki Day Second place is still great...and a close one at that.

Thanks, Mr. Shaw!

Took a pic after we set up the tent this morning. Then I didn't see it again till after the Quiz Bowl! But Gary Greene and Bob Harris tag-teamed with stories from ten till noon. At one, I told my story "Yellow Tail" with which I won the Big Fibber award in April. About twenty folk gathered in and around the tent for that, and it was also broadcast throughout the Waterfest grounds.

Do you have any CD's of your stories?

Terrell Shaw
I'm working on that, Rose. 

I discovered yesterday that a local big box office supply place had their banners on half-price, and on a whim decided to just audaciously create a banner for our guild. I thought it turned out well. I picked it up from the Cartersville store at nine last night.
I wonder if anyone took pics during storytelling. Probably not.

Just before we took down the tent Sheila took my picture with the sign I made for River Tales (after midnight last night, with typical timeliness.

Ruth Baird Shaw Congratulations Champions! Congratulations to Armuchee's Fourth Grade and to their teacher!!

Ruth Pinson Yea! Way to go AES!

Terrell Shaw Thanks. I am so proud of those eight kids. Each came through with at least one shining moment when they came up with the quick toss-up response or thoughtful bonus question reasoning... or even a very-timely surprise [How did he know that?!]

Ruth Pinson Well, they had great instruction! 

Bob Doster Congrats to the kids.

Kathy Cannon Rogers Thanks for posting the other schools Terrell. That's awesome for AES!

Sherry Jean Sims Hey, way to go Terrell!!! The Quiz Bowl was great!
